Wishing for Spring!!!

Hi All;

This month has certainly lived up to the saying "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb".  It seems that this March has been nothing but a lion all month long and we are all wishing for spring and the warmer weather.

For my last post for OCS this month, I have used this adorable stamp from Whimsy Wee Stamps Collection called Iris designed by Sylvia Zet.


Instead of using Design Paper, I used the Spellbinders M-Bossabilities embossing folder called Splendid Design Side A to emboss a sheet of plain white cardstock and using a sponge pouncer I coloured it with  Lime Green 3D Stamp Paint from Viva Decor, which gives a glittery effect.  As this is the first time I have played with this new product I only used one colour, but I can't wait to try some colour combinations.

Supplies used:  
  • Stamps:  Iris, Ticket Sentiments (both from Whimsy Stamps)
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Paper:  X-Press It Blending Cardstock
  • Copic Markers:  Skin: E0000 - Floral White, E000 - Pale Fruit Pink, R20 - Blush; Hair:  E50 - Egg Shell, YR31 - Light Reddish Yellow, Y28 - Lionet Gold; Dress: G0000 - Crystal Opal, G000 - Pale Green, G00 - Jade Green; Wings:  BG0000 - Snow Green, BG000 - Pale Aqua, Bg10 - Cool Shadow, BG11 - Moon White; Flowers:  V0000 - Rose Quartz, V000 - Pale Heath, V01 - Health; BV0000 - Iridescent Mauve, BV000 - Pale Thistle, BV00 - Mauve Shadow
  • Atyou Spica Glitter Pen:  13 - Lilac
  • Wink of Stella Brush:  999 GL Clear
  • Spellbinders:  M-Bossabilities - Spendid Design A; Adorning Squares Die
  • Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint:  Lime Green
